Default Fog light removal instruction

Hi all,

I want to replace the fog light bulbs. The right side fog light is easy to get to through the bumper but the left side is almost impossible because of the air induction piping.

Has anyone tried to replace the left side fog light bulb? How did you do it? I have read that it is possible to reach to the back of the fog light by hand from the bottom, but which plastic panel must be removed first?

Any comments and instructions welcome. Thanks in advance.

Did you have to remove any panel/covers to get to the driver side fog light. I can see the light bulb from the engine compartment, but my arms are too big and short to reach that far down. Any suggestions?

Are you replacing them because they are burned out or going to an amber bulb. If your going amber let us know which one, since I am also considering this...

I want to install Silverstars 9005. Mod to the bulb is easy, and you'll get a much brighter light, and closer in color to the HID's. BTW, this is for a RX330.
